Chapter 45 Mutation
After everyone returned to the inn, Ye Yuanqing couldn't wait to ask, "Teacher Yun, what did you mean by what you just said?"
Yun Menghan didn't speak, but just checked Ye Yuanqing's chest, and after seeing that there was no major problem, he said with a smile: "Childe doesn't need to say much, you can just listen to me for the rest of your days in Hangzhou, don't go anywhere during the day today, stay at the inn, I'll go out and come back before dinner." With that, he walked out.
The three people left in the house looked at each other, but seeing Yun Menghan's confident appearance, they didn't worry too much, Ye Yuanqing continued to be with Cui Lingsha, while Lin Yuanqing ran to the backyard to practice the process of fighting Jiang Wenbin just now.
Time passed bit by bit, Yun Menghan really appeared at the moment when dinner was served, Ye Yuanqing was about to continue to ask, but was stopped by Yun Menghan as soon as he raised his hand, only to see him say in a low voice: "You guys hurry up and pack your things, we are going to Zhou's house now." ”
"Teacher Yun, you... Ye Yuanqing continued to ask unwillingly.
"Childe, I'll tell you when I get to the Zhou family, now clean up. Yun Menghan rarely said to Ye Yuanqing seriously.
The three of them could only quickly pack up their things according to his words, turned out of the back window, and rushed in the direction of Zhoufu while the night was dark, suddenly Ye Yuanqing stepped on something and tripped over, he hunched over and looked down at the ground, his hair stood up instantly, and he almost screamed.
It turned out that there were two corpses lying on the ground, and a lot of blood had accumulated on the ground where the corpses were located, under the illumination of the miserable white moonlight, like a mirror, the bloody and blurred bodies were entangled with the broken clothes, making it impossible to tell which ones were flesh and blood, and which ones were clothes, these were okay, what made Ye Yuanqing feel most terrifying was the posture and expression of these two people.
The two corpses were stacked on top of each other, and their posture seemed to be desperately climbing up, their whole bodies were bent in the opposite direction, as if they had been vigorously broken from the back, and the raised heads allowed Ye Yuanqing to see their hideous faces clearly, especially the two pairs of eyes, which were wide open, although lifeless, but they revealed infinite resentment, as if they wanted to remember the appearance of the murderer before they died, and turned into a ghost to ask for their lives after death.
And Cui Lingsha and Lin Yuanqing behind him also saw the two people on the ground, Lin Yuanqing gasped and said in a low voice: "Who is so heavy-handed!"
Cui Lingsha suddenly covered her mouth with both hands, and her whole body trembled.
Yun Menghan, who was at the front, whispered: "Don't be stunned, let's go!"
Ye Yuanqing could only step over the two corpses and carry Cui Lingsha up and step over again, Lin Yuanqing followed, and the three of them saw a lot of corpses along the way, some lying on the wall, some embedded in the wall, not to mention twelve or thirteen people, and even one corpse seemed to have been cut off with a sharp weapon, and the body was in a different place.
Finally arrived at the gate of Zhou's mansion, the three of them seemed to have walked around in the hell ghost road, all of them were pale, and Yun Menghan stepped forward to knock on the door with a calm expression, and after a while, he saw Zhou An leaning out of the door, and he saw the four people standing at the door and walked out and let them in.
The living room was brightly lit at this time, and there were three people sitting inside, one was Zhou Kongqi, the head of the Zhou family, next to Duan Changqing, the prefect of Hangzhou, and opposite the two sat an old man with white hair, although his face was old, but he sat there like a rock and did not move, but his temples were deeply sunken, indicating that his internal strength was extremely deep.
When the four of them walked into the living room, Ye Yuanqing and Lin Yuanqing couldn't help but exclaim when they saw the people standing behind the old man: "Jiang Wenbin?!"
The old man, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, and his gaze as sharp as an eagle's eye swept towards the two, and they felt the pressure increase, and couldn't help but take two steps back, and then Yun Menghan stood in front of the two, making this pressure disappear invisibly, only to see him clench his fists and bow: "Yun Menghan has seen Senior Tong." ”
The old man is the master of the Righteous Qi Hall of the Huanhua Sword Sect, Tong Yuan, although he is over the age of old, he is still in charge of the Right Qi Hall for forty years.
The Zhengqi Hall of the Huanhua Sword Sect is equivalent to the disciple's school, and the work of the master of the Zhengqi Hall is the same as Qiu Mingyuan's, teaching the disciples of this sect martial arts, and all the disciples of the Huanhua Sword Sect who have been active on the rivers and lakes in the past forty years must be honored as "master" when they see him.
Tong Yuan's awesomeness has two points, the first is his Huanhua sword technique, which was praised by his master as the most authentic swordsmanship of the Huanhua Sword School in the past hundred years, and one word to describe Tong Yuan's swordsmanship is that it is beautiful, and the second point is that he uses the unique internal strength of the Huanhua Sword School as "Tianhui True Qi" Practiced to the top level, according to legend, you can use sword qi to hurt people in the air, and it is rumored to be amazing, but no one has really seen it, because when he was thirty years old, he was in charge of the righteous qi hall, and since then he rarely walks around in the rivers and lakes, and his identity is no less than Zhang Jueyuan, the head of the Huanhua Sword Sect, and it is precisely because of him that the Huanhua Sword Sect with a small number of people has the strength to compete with the Zhou family in Hangzhou City, and there is no way for anyone on both sides to take it.
After Yun Menghan finished speaking, Tong Yuan closed his eyes, turned his head, nodded slightly, and then stopped moving.
And Jiang Wenbin, who was behind him, was shocked when he saw the four of them, and asked in a dumb voice, "Why are you here?!"
Zhou Kongqi and Duan Changqing just quietly watched what was happening in front of them, and had no intention of interjecting, Yun Menghan heard Jiang Wenbin say this, and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, why did you say this?
"You... You... Jiang Wenbin still wanted to say something, but he couldn't organize the language.
"Brother Jiang wants to ask, how did we avoid the secret whistle you laid down? After Yun Menghan finished speaking, he took out an irregular black cloth embroidered with the door emblem of the Huanhua Sword Sect, and the black cloth was dripping blood.
"You!" Jiang Wenbin was now shocked and angry in his heart, angry that it seemed that the other party had solved all the dozen or so secret sentinels he had arranged, and the surprise was that the four of them seemed to be unharmed, but he did this behind his back on his master Tong Yuan, Tong Yuan is notoriously strict, if he let him know that he has a personal vendetta, he will definitely have no good fruit to eat.
Sure enough, Tong Yuan felt that Jiang Wenbin's tone was wrong, opened his eyes and looked at Yun Menghan, when he saw the strip of cloth in Yun Menghan's hand, he froze, and then the killing intent spread out from his whole body, instantly filling the entire living room, his tone was hoarse, as if without a trace of emotion, he asked, "Yun Menghan, this is?"
"Don't worry, senior, you have to ask your good apprentice. Yun Menghan said after putting away the strip of cloth.
"Oh, Wenbin, tell me about it. Tong Yuan said coldly.
"Master, I... I... Jiang Wenbin was already sweating profusely at this time, stumbling and speechless, Tong Yuan saw him like this, and shouted like thunder: "Kneel!"
This sound exploded in everyone's ears like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Lin Yuanqing suddenly felt dizzy, Cui Lingsha's eyes were black, and he couldn't help but weaken, and fell into Ye Yuanqing's arms, but Ye Yuanqing was like no one, and after seeing Cui Lingsha fall, he hurriedly reached out to help her, but he didn't feel any discomfort, but he felt that Tong Yuan's roar was a little deafening.
Jiang Wenbin fell to his knees with a puff, hugged Tong Yuan's thigh with tears streaming down his face, and said: "Master, the apprentice knows that he is wrong! These senior brothers were sent by me to keep an eye on these four people, but they didn't think about doing anything to them, and the senior brothers seem to have been harmed by this group of thieves!" After speaking, he howled and cried, looking very sad.
Tong Yuan looked at the beloved disciple and Yizi in front of him, and couldn't help but soften his heart, when he heard Jiang Wenbin say that it was Yun Menghan's hand, he immediately found an outlet, snorted heavily, and said, "Kill my Huanhua disciple, damn it!" After speaking, he slapped the table, and the white jade sword placed on the table "buzzed" and shot out, and the hilt of the sword flew over thinking about Yun Menghan.
And Yun Menghan had a rare serious expression, only to see him stand up with his legs slightly apart, twist his waist hard, side out of the right half of his body, grab the hilt of the flying sword, and then lean back, his upper body turned in a big circle around the waist, and then the sword came out of his hand, and flew into the scabbard with a "ding" sound, and the stones under Yun Menghan's feet were stepped on by him with two shallow footprints.
Tong Yuan looked at Yun Menghan with a little surprise, the killing intent on his body was even stronger, at this moment Zhou Kongqi came out to play a round, he was only afraid that if he didn't show up now, there would be one less Ye family or Huanhua Sword Sect on the rivers and lakes in the future, he laughed and walked to Yun Menghan's side, grabbed his neck, walked up to Tong Yuan and said: " Old man Tong, you are in your early seventies, why are you still so short-tempered, come on, let me give you a formal introduction, this is the teacher of the eldest son of the Ye family in Chang'an, Yun Menghan, and the one standing over there is the eldest son of the Ye family, Ye Yuanqing. ”
Tong Yuan was stunned again after hearing the Ye family in Chang'an, he knew the strength of the Ye family, if he really put it right with them, a few Huanhua Sword Sects would not be enough, but as a martial arts senior, he didn't want to let him go like this, so he said slowly with a murderous aura: "Even the people of the Ye family can't take the lives of more than a dozen of my Huanhua disciples with one hand." ”
Yun Menghan bowed again and said, "Senior Tong Mingjian, we were forced to do this. As he spoke, he took out a small handful of firewood from Ye Yuanqin's book, he picked up the firewood and waved it in the air a few times, and then Zhou Kongqi frowned and said, "Fire oil?"
"It was this firewood drenched in fire oil that had been found downstairs in our inn, and it was already packed in a row at dinner, which clearly meant that someone was trying to kill us. After Yun Menghan finished speaking, he also looked at Jiang Wenbin who was kneeling on the ground, and Tong Yuan also followed Yun Menghan's gaze to him, his majestic eyes full of questions.
Although Jiang Wenbin has followed Tong Yuan since he was a child, the person he is most afraid of is also Tong Yuan, seeing Tong Yuan's gaze, his brain is already blank, and he only knows that he is lying on the ground, trembling all over.
Tong Yuan also knew it in his heart when he saw this, but although he was strict, he had always been extremely protective of his shortcomings, and he loved his beloved disciples, and he usually turned a blind eye when he made a small mistake, and now his righteous son almost caused such a big disaster, and he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, but when he saw Jiang Wenbin's appearance, he was a little soft-hearted.
Just when he didn't know how to speak, Yun Menghan said, "Senior Tong, I don't know if your disciple makes a mistake, what will you do?"
Tong Yuan couldn't help but be furious when he heard Yun Menghan pressing forward step by step, "My Huanhua Sword Sect has its own rules, and it is not your turn to teach the old man how to deal with it, and even if my disciples make a big mistake, don't forget that you still have the blood of more than a dozen disciples of my sect on your hands!"
Zhou Kong was shocked, he didn't expect Tong Yuan to make a sudden move, and it seemed that he was planning to kill Yun Menghan in the palm of his hand with one blow, and just as he was about to make a move to stop it, Yun Menghan beside him spoke.
"The thirteen warehouses at the South Bank Wharf plus the thirty-six shops in Changle Fang, I wonder if they can offset the debts of a dozen disciples of your sect?" Yun Menghan did not dodge Tong Yuan's palm, and after Tong Yuan heard what he said, he actually stopped abruptly.
